Subway Train Operates with Broken Window in Berlin - Underground train in Berlin experiences window malfunction
Here's a bump in the Big Apple that'll make you do a double take! A shattered window in the door of a New York City subway, specifically a U-Bahn train, caused quite a commotion in the vibrant metropolis of Berlin. The explosive incident took place on a U7 train, detailed by a spokesperson for the Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe (BVG) on a bustling Saturday evening.
The train was swiftly taken out of service and headed to the workshop for repair. Luckily, no passengers were hurt during this window smash, as confirmed by the law enforcement.
Initially, the BVG considered this a property damage case. They'd never dream of operating a train with a smashed window, they are adamant about safety. However, the circumstances surrounding the missing window—whether it was nicked, taken, or shattered—remained uncertain in the haze of the weekend.
Rumors swirled as the Berlin daily newspaper, "Tagesspiegel", published videos of the shattered door, reportedly captured by a thrilled passenger.
For any travelers on the U-Bahn trains, the BVG urges prompt action in such situations. Emergency services can be reached via the call button located at the top of the door area, or by using the emergency call and information columns stationed at the U-Bahn stations.
